2020 TESLA MODEL Y suspension

WARNING: Riding in a moving vehicle with the
seat back reclined can result in serious injuries in a
collision, as you could slide under the lap belt or
be propelled into the seat belt. Ensure your seat
back is reclined no more than 30 degrees when
the vehicle is moving.
Adjusting and Folding Second Row
Seats
Model Y provides seating for up to three passengers in
the second row. Use the adjustment handles on the
outside corner of each outboard seating position to adjust the corresponding seat backs. The seat back is
split 60/40 so the adjustment handle on the left side moves the seat backs for both the left and center seating positions, whereas the handle on the right side
moves the rightmost seat back only. While pulling and holding the handle, move the seat back to the desired position, and then release the handle. Ensure the seat
back is securely latched into position by pushing it
forward and rearward.
To maximize cargo space, each second row seat back can be folded fully forward to lay
flat. While pulling and
holding the handle, push the corresponding seat back fully forward.
NOTE: Before folding seats fully forward, remove any
items from the seats and the rear footwell. To allow the
seat backs to fold completely
flat, you may need to
move the front seats forward.
NOTE: Driving with the rear seats folded forward may
increase perceivable noise and/or vibration coming
from the rear of the vehicle (trunk, suspension, etc.).
To allow you to carry long items (such as skis) in the rear of
Model Y, the center seat back can also be
independently folded forward. Pull the handle on the rear of the seat back. The seat back unlatches and can be pushed forward.
